Andrew Scheer announced to his caucus on Thursday that he will resign as leader of the Conservative Party of Canada.

Scheer will stay on as leader until his replacement is chosen, which could wait until the party’s convention in April.

The resignation comes shortly after it was found out he had been using Conservative Party money to put his kids through private school.

Senior Conservatives say that was done without the knowledge or approval of the fund board and chair.

He has also been facing pressure from the party following his loss in the federal election.

Scheer has been the leader since May 27th, 2017.
